Vacuum Pump

Vacuum pump




The N62 engine requires a vacuum pump for the vacuum assisted brake booster. With the throttle valve open while the car is being driven, additional vacuum is needed.

The N62 vacuum pump has a second vacuum connection (small hose) for the exhaust flap adjustment. The vacuum pump is driven by cylinders 1-4 exhaust camshaft via the VANOS unit. The pump is lubricated through an oil gallery from the cylinder head.
